Give Grandly! Give Local! - a 24-hour community-giving marathon to support more than 50 nonprofit organizations that help make Southwest New Mexico a great place to live, work and play. Whatever your passion may be: arts and culture, historic preservation, local food, animal welfare, education, environment or any other important cause, May 9th is the best day of the year to give back to our community.
Since life as we know it has been turned upside down, the festival is going virtual! Give Grandly will host a virtual event next to the Farmers' Market that will be live-streamed on the www.givegrandly.org website on May 9th from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm. The event will showcase the participating non-profits and the good work they do in videos created by the organizations themselves, and there will be music by great local talent and leaderboard updates to track donations as they are reported.
Donations can be made online at www.givegrandly.org from now to May 9th. Or checks can be mailed to the individual non-profits and designated for Give Grandly – their addresses are on the website, along with all kinds of information about the organizations. No matter how big or small the donation, everyone can be a philanthropist and support our area nonprofits. Give a little, give a lot, give local - Give Grandly!
